I think a lot of people are eating crow after yesterday... I don't think anyone saw War Pass getting less than 3rd; I certainly didn't. I did have Atoned for the place, though.

There were bridge jumpers galore. Big Truck paid more to show than to win.

I don't bet much but I did add Atoned to one of my Road to the Roses Stables as a late addition although I couldn't really find any horses to add that looked as though they might win the Derby. I'd say Atoned does have room to improve and I should get a few more points through him.

I was very fortunate to have added Georgie Boy as a late addition to all three of my stables, because like everyone else, although I'm not a War Pass fan, you have to have him in there because you have to think he's going to pick up a few points even if not the Derby. So not expecting a War Pass wash, Georgie Boy saved me from dropping a few thousand places in the competition.
